Description

The 45th Space Wing is responsible for providing range and launch processing support services to its customers using the launch site at Cape Canaveral Air Station and the Eastern Range. At the same time, funding for providing this support and maintaining the necessary infrastructure continues to be constrained. Government and contractor manning for operating the Eastern Launch Site and the Eastern Range has declined by roughly ten percent in the last five years. The government, along with industry, is being asked to do more with less and do it faster. New customers no longer spend four to five years introducing a launch program. Instead, a new commercial customer may expect to make a launch date two years after initial program introduction. To accomplish the 45th Space Wing’s mission of “Ensure National Strength Through Assured Access To Space” and achieve its vision: “To be the World’s Premier Gateway To Space” require that the funding and resources the Wing does receive be used as efficiently and effectively as possible. Effective and efficient use of the Wing’s resources to accomplish its mission depends upon information— information about those resources and how they are to be used.
